A few years back, I worked for a major manufacturing company of window treatments. This company specializes, not in the usual drapes and curtains, but in blinds. One of the most beautiful of window treatments of this sort, in my opinion, is wood blinds. They are rich in color and tone and add a certain luxury to any room decor. I have mini-blinds and vertical blinds in my home now, and I would love to change them to wood instead of vinyl and metal.

Depending on the décor in your home, you can select curtain material which comes in a variety of fabrics ranging from cottons to linens, velvets, tapestries, silks, satins, cotton blends, etc. Curtain material comes in a variety of colours and prints ranging from solid colours, stripes, checks, textured with symmetrical and geometrical patterns, florals, etc. While selecting material, you should generally bear in mind that for rooms having fitted or fixed upholstery, that is patterned, the curtains should generally be plain or self-textured. If the upholstery is plain, then one could go for patterned or plain curtains as per selection. In rooms having loose covers, like bedrooms, one could select a colour keeping in mind that over a period of time loose covers can be varied. Be careful that if both the upholstery and curtain are printed and patterned, the look could be very busy or visually chaotic.
